Cant get windows live account to work

Trying to setup a windows live email address in the windows live mail client.
It wont accept my Windows live username or password even though I have
confirmed them to be correct. Even tried changing my password and it still
will not allow me to sign in. Any suggestions?

Re: Cant get windows live account to work

Are you in Tools, Accounts?
Are you trying to use pop or http?
If pop, did you set pop access?

Hotmail, Live, or Msn.com email address ?
- if so, have you successfully logged to the web interface(Mail.live.com) at least once with that username/pw and accessed your
inbox ?
